Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dictionary of Religion: An Encyclopaedia of Christian and Other Religious Doctrines, Denominations, Sects, Heresies, Ecclesiastical Terms, History, Biography, Etc With regard to the amps of the work, the biographical articles are exclu sively of persons whose course on earth is ended, though of necessity it is imposible to avoid references to living men who have taken part in current controversies. Articles of purely Scriptural History, Topography, and Exegesis, are excluded, as they are already treated of in what are known as Bible Dictionaries. The present volume has to do with Ecclesiastical History and Doctrine, and with the known Religions of the ancient and modern world, and the topics and the persons connected with these subjects. Even with these limitations, the difficulty has been to compress what was required within a manageable compass; and it is believed that the dedication of the space at command to information, much of which is not otherwise readily accessible, was preferable to occupying a large portion of it with details which can be easily referred to elsewhere.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Encyclopaedia of Religions Tu science of Comparative Religion is still so young that information on many matters embraced by it has not found its way as yet into ordinary encyclowdiu; and of special encyclopedias or dictionaries very few have been published. The great Eucyelopcdia of Religion and Ethics, edited by Dr. James Hastings, is a storehonse of learned discussion and information, but its size places it as a household work of reference beyond the reach of many readers. A felt gap is filled very usefully by the handy Dictionary of newclacn'cal Mythology, compiled by Marian Edwardes and Lewis Spence; but, as its title indicates, much of the new material that belongs in a special sense to the domain of religion is excluded necessarily frm such a work.
